Just know that the pancakes are big enough to share, the photo doesnt do it enough justice! Very nice ambiance inside the restaurant. The eaiter was extremely professional, attentive and knowledgeable on the menu. The food was amazing to say the least, like i said generous portions on just about everything. Definitely would recommend for brunch or even an outing with coworkers, friends, family.

This place is a delicious option for breakfast and brunch in the South Bay! Chula Vista’s breakfast scene is pretty dominated by suburban chain restaurants, but this is a gem.The food was delicious, well-prepared, and made to order. It’s not the fastest, but it’s well worth it for piping hot, fresh breakfast potatoes.The Mexipino Hash Plate has got a little bit of everything on it: tidbits of every kind of breakfast meat among the two cultures represented in the menu here. They toss a smattering of black beans and garlic rice onto it all, which was a delightful surprise. The whole entree was topped with a 1/4 of a sliced avocado (and we didn’t even have to pay extra for it!).The veggie scramble is also quite good, and probably the most generous in terms of all the mix-ins of any restaurant scramble I’ve had. Caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and more avocado, with a huge side of potatoes and pan de sal toast.I’d come again just for that toasted pan de sal! Highly recommend.
Incredible food, amazing customer service, the servers are amazing and those cooks are great at their craft!! Come and eat you all type of amazing menus, you can thank me later
TLDR: if you see a female server leave the building immediately; other then that it’s an amazing spot who needs more traffic their food is unique, tasty and worth any travel through the area.Very very good local place in Chula Vista. I’d recommend getting the fried chick adobo waffles they are to die for; all the servers I’ve had were above and beyond even bringing water without being asked (awesome!). Although my most recent visit left a sour taste in my mouth with a female server regrettably I’ve never seen her there before maybe a new hirer or someone that’s I haven’t personally seen. She was not being accommodating, gave a judgmental glare and not acknowledging my table after serving us the whole time there. while there was another group they were a group of 3 with no other patrons in the building near close. She gave me and my group a bad vibe and as well as coming off as snobby or purposeful agitated getting one of our orders wrong in the process flagging her down to fix the problem was a hassle. while we only asked for 5 items including drinks Being difficult to flag down is understandable when overloaded but it was just my group and another group a total of two tables this was just to get our check. she never glanced or checked in with us but did with the other group. The only words exchanged were about what we wanted to order and the check she still was being difficult the whole time until we were about to pay she then gave us the first smile during our checkout throughout the whole of the 3 interactions. Hopefully it was just nerves or something but I’ve only had that experience in the middle of no where while traveling in Oregon. The saving grace I swear is the food I would have rated the place a 3 just because of the female servers interaction…or lack of
I took my family out for brunch today… I found this unassuming little awesome restaurant MEXIPINO yes, just like the name suggests it’s a great cross between Mexican and Philippine food. We enjoyed the food (large portions) greatly and the service was exceptional as well. Definitely found a treasure to visit again and again.
It was clean and the server/owner Richard was extremely helpful and knowledgeable recommended a few dishes came out hot fresh and cooked to order great service great food would highly recommend to anyone and I'll be going back again. Dining room was nice open atmosphere clean
Awesome Philippine/Mexican food. Shared the Mexipino Has Plate with a friend... Awesome! Richard served us... Awesome!
This place is absolute garbage. The Host was incredibly rude for no reason? And gave us not what we ordered but charged for the more expensive thing we did order.
This whole place is a disappointment. The woman taking orders was rude. She got the orders wrong even after having to repeat them a couple times. Restaurant apparently has no AC. I ordered the Mexipino hash and instead got a plate of chips with egg on top. The pork trio scramble was minuscule. Also worth mentioning we got all our food in Togo containers while all reviews show food coming in skillets and plates.
